Warning!! Dangerous design flaw in the 2006 Jeep Wranglers!!



The 2006 six speed Jeep Wrangler has a very dangerous design flaw. New
for
the 2006 Jeep Wrangler is the six speed transmissions and what I have
recently learned the "hard way" is part of the redesign includes the
clutch
assembly. The clutch rod comes out of the floor board and attaches to the
clutch pedal with a clip/attachment that bolts onto the clutch pedal. The
problem here is as part of their new design the clip or attachment piece
is
made of "plastic" and I found that it can break very easily and disable
your
Jeep. ........


I have had clutch linkage failure in several vehicles. You can still
drive the vehicle. You can carefully shift between gears when the
vehicle is moving without a clutch, and you can start and stop in 1st
gear by turning the engine off or starting it in gear.



NOOOOOooooooooo!!!!!!

Such horrible driving behavior! Don't you know you could kill somebody
(or be killed) like that?!?!? Why do you think all those interlocks that
keep you from starting your vehicle while it's in gear are there??? The
car makers know best! Trust me!

Nick, you need to be taken out behind the barn and flogged! Giving such
hideously dangerous advice like that on a public forum! Do you realize
how many lives you've put in danger??? Do you even *CARE*??? Oh, the
humanity!!!

grunting

HELP! My tounge is stuck in my cheek, and I can't pull it out!!!!
